Traveler reviews
Great guide with lots of historical knowledge to add to the obvious signage information
If you travel during the summer, be prepared for crowds and people in all your pictures, wear shoes with good soles (since marble and granite can be slippery)
The Acropolis tour was an...
The Acropolis tour was an incredible experience, and Galatia was a fantastic guide. She was extremely informative throughout the tour and also very considerate of everyone in the group, especially given the heat. And the heat is no joke. This is definitely not for the faint of heart, so come prepared with sunscreen, plenty of water, and comfortable shoes. The tour company does a good job explaining what to expect, but it’s worth taking seriously, especially during the warmer months. One recommendation I would make is to book the museum experience along with the Acropolis rather than doing the Acropolis tour alone. Seeing the artifacts and history in the museum really helps bring everything you see at the Acropolis to life and gives you a much deeper understanding of what you’re looking at. Overall, Galatia made the experience even better with her knowledge and thoughtful approach. If you're visiting Athens, the Acropolis is obviously a must, but I highly recommend pairing it with the museum for the full experience.
Great Athens Experience

Acropolis…a must see!
Very educational and informative tour guide Soter. He was friendly, courteous and knowledgeable. Weather cooperated and the views from the top are incredible. A must visit while in Athens.
Acropolis & Museum Tour
A great walk with an educated archaeologist giving history and local information. Museum ticket worth paying for. Excellent & a “must do” experience while visiting Athens. Sofia was our guide & she was charismatic, friendly, organised & eloquent.
